WHEN Isabella, sister of King Henry
III. of England, was married to the
Emperor of Germany, her wedding
presents and trousseau were so splen-
did that they appeared to surpass
kingly wealth.. She shone forth with
such a profusion of rings and gold
necklaces and other splendid jewels,
with silk and thread garments, and
other like ornaments which usually
attract the attention of women, that
they appeared invaluable. Her cups
and dishes were of the purest gold and
silver, and, what seemed superfuous to
every one, all the cooking pots, large
and small, were of pure silver.
